  • Many people tell me they have really difficult names from which to create interesting signatures. The answer is to turn your initials into a monogram. It is a quick, simple and elegant solution.
    When you have designed your monogram, practice it over and over again, day after day until you can do it in your sleep. As you do, it will become smoother and more designery and your friends will be impressed - especially if you write it with a flourish!

    I've been doing the same "signature" for years when I draw.. and I never knew it was called a monogram. Also the more I signed it.. the more I ended up just doing lines. It doesn't even look like my initials anymore but I think it looks prettier that way.

    My initials are MD, making it very easy to connect the two by using the right leg of the M as the stem for the D. Works very nicely.

    For my DeviantArt username I created one of these to use as my signature. It looks a bit like an anchor. A big letter 'A' with a line through the middle (top to bottom) so that the line through the A is also the line through the T. Then at the bottom of the line, a large dot for I and a W as well.

    My name initials are G and F. So for my signature I do first a calligraphic G, then I use the vertical bar of the G and I add one or two horizontal bars (it depends) (but then i put my last name and I underline the all). It's my signature since I'm 13 and I love it haha
